I FOLLOW A STAR

I follow a star

Burning deep in the blue,

A sign on the hills

Lit for me and for you!

Moon-red is the star,

Halo-ringed like a rood,

Christ's heart in its heart set,

Streaming with blood.

Follow the gilly

Beyond to the west:

He leads where the Christ lies

On Mary's white breast.

King, priest and prophet —

A child, and no more —

Adonai the Maker!

Come, let us adore.
